Two Hands at 2NL (Pokerstove Analysis atempted)(AA&JJ)

BB is 52/12 over small sample size of 25 hands.

I do not know how to put him on a range here. I do not think that anyone would bluff big here, but at the same time it was "only 4 cents for him to call" So I do not know if i can through hands like 910 out of his position. So if I use pokerstove I get

42.299%{ AdAh }
57.701%{ TT+, ATs, KTs, QTs, JTs, ATo, KTo, QTo, JTo }


Is it okay to fold? and if I do not fold how big should my re raise be? I also can't stand when poeple bet min into large pots cause I do not know how to handle it.

********************************
No reads. I suck about putting someone on a range when I have no stats. I am going to try to think through this hand and hopefully you can correct my logic.

Since I have no stats he can have anything before the flop. On flop to call he can have FD, SD, Ax,QK. By the time he checks the turn, FD SD and QT+ is all that is left. So at this point on the river he can bluff me easily due to my play and yet at the same time the only thing I beat is a bluff.

So if try to poker stove it on the river I have something like 18%(KK,JJ,KTs+,A2o+,KTo+) equity. So if he bets it brings it to 51 cents thus upon calling it will be 63 cents * 18%=11 cents. Thus, calling 12 cents it not wise.

I am still new to the whole poker stove stuff. Thanks for the help.

nice work on the attempts you made. Critique on your process will be far more beneficial to you than a short "raise flop" type of comment.
Think about the reasons we bet.

hand 1
your raise pre-flop needs to be bigger, a common rule is 4xBB + 1xBB for every limper. In this spot this is a minimum, as you say 'only 4 cents'.

TT+ is not in villain's range much at all as he raises these hands pre-flop rather than open-limping. I like your flop raise, and I think that both calling and folding are ok. Folding is better as he can't even have a nut flush draw. Raising is bad (better hands aren't folding, worse hands are)

an approach you can try is assuming a default set of characteristics. What would a 'typical' player in your games do?

pre-flop nice.
flop you can check. What hands that you beat are calling? what hands that beat you are folding? Turn check makes sense as played. River situation shouldn't happen cos of flop play. Um, fold I guess, your analysis is a good start, but villain has a weak ace or Qx about all the time so fold is fine. Sizing makes for wanting to call tho.
